Definitions

  • Preferably such system and method will provide a simple checkout procedure to validate the purchase.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a theft deterring system 100, which preferably includes a power tool 200 and/or 250, and a tag programmer 150.
  • power tool 200 may have a motor M connected to a power source, such as AC power via power cord 201, and/or battery pack 202.
  • a controller 203 may control a switch (e.g. a FET) 204 for controlling the amount of power provided to motor M. Controller 203 may use inputs from the trigger 205 and/or other sensors 207 to vary the amount of power provided to motor M.
  • a switch e.g. a FET
  • memory 206M could be programmed to have different values representing unactivated, partly activated and fully activated states.
  • power tool 200 may not turn on, may only work at a lower setting than when fully activated, and/or may only have some features (such as motor "soft start") working, if any.
  • power tool 200 may only work at a lower setting (e.g. a lower power setting) than when fully activated and/or may work at the same setting as a fully activated power tool but only have some features (such a motor soft start) working, if any.
  • power tool 200 may work at the full settings and/or have all features (such a motor soft start) working.
  • Battery control circuit 263 may also receive input from a state circuit 266.
  • State circuit 266 may have a memory 266M which stores a state value.
  • State circuit 266 may have an antenna 266A which receives a signal from tag programmer 150.
  • state circuit 266 may be a passive RFID tag circuit with rewritable memory (which can be powered by the signal transmitted by tag programmer 150), or an active RFID tag circuit with rewritable memory (which, for example, can be powered by the cell(s) 261 or a separate battery cell (not shown)).
  • battery control circuit 263 would sense the current draw. In view of such current draw, battery control circuit 263 would query state circuit 266 and/or memory 266M. Once battery control circuit 263 sees the value representing the unactivated state, it would activate FET 265, which would urge controller 203 to not provide power to the motor M.
  • memories 206M, 266M may also be reprogrammed via a non-wireless method.
  • power tools 200, 250 and/or battery packs 260 may have a USB port which allows someone at check out to plug in a device 150 that would reprogram memories 206M, 266M to have the value representative of the activated states.
  • Alternatively such device 150 can be plugged into the terminals of power tool 250, power cord 201 and/or battery pack 260.

Claims (11)

  1. Système de dissuasion de vol (100), comprenant :
    un outil électrique (200, 250) comprenant : un moteur (M) pouvant être connecté à une source d'énergie, un interrupteur (204, 265) connecté au moteur (M), un dispositif de commande (203) connecté à l'interrupteur (204, 265), le dispositif de commande (203) commandant l'interrupteur (204, 265) pour commander une quantité d'énergie fournie au moteur (M), et un circuit d'état (206, 266) présentant une mémoire (206M, 266M) pour le stockage d'une valeur d'état ;
    dans lequel le dispositif de commande (203) est configuré pour activer l'interrupteur (204, 265) pour fournir de l'énergie au moteur (M) lorsque la valeur d'état stockée dans la mémoire (206M, 266M) est égale à une valeur souhaitée ;
    dans lequel la valeur d'état stockée représente l'un des états suivants : un état non activé dans lequel l'outil électrique (200, 250) ne peut pas être allumé et un état entièrement activé dans lequel l'outil électrique (200, 250) peut fonctionner à des réglages complets et/ou présenter toutes les caractéristiques ; caractérisé en ce que la valeur d'état stockée peut également représenter un état partiellement activé dans lequel l'outil électrique (200, 250) peut fonctionner uniquement à un réglage de puissance plus faible et/ou présenter seulement certaines caractéristiques.
  2. Système de dissuasion de vol (100) selon la revendication 1, dans lequel le circuit d'état (206, 266) est connecté au dispositif de commande (203).
